Tuesday Evening Loops

The 6.9 mile loop starts at the junction of Bridge Road/Marine Parade and heads north towards Gorleston town centre via Park Road, Victoria Road and Lowestoft Road. We continue up through the High Street, with caution, and take a left-hand turn at the T-junction, towards Bradwell. Taking the second exit on the White Horse roundabout the route follows the A143 south-west as far as the Beaufont Way roundabout. Taking the first exit easterly, we continue straight over the next five roundabouts, the last being the A47, onto Links Road towards the sea. A sweeping left/right bend leads into Yallop Avenue before one last left-hander to complete the loop.

We usually meet at the school, then complete 3 loops. You can do as many or few as you like!

Start Time!

Ideal for the Club Run/Social riders who would like push on a little further and begin riding faster and learn how to ride in a group that rotates to work together to keep the speeds higher. Also suitable to those looking to progress even further or maybe training for a specific event. May use a few more main roads than the Club Run/Social rides, Beginners to this type of riding are able to come along and try a lap or two at first until they are used to it and able to complete the whole ride.

Intermediate Rides (Ride Category 4)
